Thursday Therapy Thoughts

Healthy joints are living tissues that adapt to appropriate movement and loading. Regular activity can help maintain strength, capacity, and resilience; the right amount and progression vary by person and condition. A physical therapist can help guide you.

Your body rarely goes from fine to broken overnight. It warns you first. 👀

Swipe through 3 signs it's time to see a physical therapist:

01 — A shoulder, waist or hemline that never sits straight. Early scoliosis usually doesn't hurt, which is exactly why it gets missed. Caught early, the Schroth Method can stop the curve from progressing.

02 — The old sports injury that keeps coming back. Pain that returns isn't healed, it's compensating.

03 — Stiffness or weakness months after surgery. Post-operative rehab is where your outcome is actually decided.

Waiting doesn't make any of these easier to fix.
